Venetian Glaze Paint – A Versatile Slaked Lime Plaster Finish

A Designer’s Dream Finish: Multiple Looks, One Authentic Lime Plaster Paint

Venetian Glaze is an authentic Italian slaked-lime plaster paint designed to deliver multiple distinctive finishes all in one versatile product. On smooth interior drywall it can be troweled to create rich movement and classic plaster-like finishes. The texture can be either subtle or dramatic depending on how much the Venetian Glaze is diluted. When heavily diluted and applied with a brush, it produces a veiling effect that subtly shift the color of interior or exterior brick, stone, or other absorbent masonry surfaces while preserving the natural texture of the surface.

Crafted by Nature. Designed for Endless Possibilities

Romabio Venetian Glaze is not a synthetic glaze or acrylic paint—it’s an authentic slaked-lime plaster paint crafted in Italy. Its natural slaked-lime base makes it breathable, eco-friendly, and extremely durable, allowing it to create either subtle, plaster-like movement on smooth surfaces or nuanced tonal variation on masonry. The result is a very flat, mineral finish that feels authentic and stands the test of time.

• Creates plaster-like depth and movement when troweled on interior drywall
• Ideal for color-shifting stone or brick while preserving natural texture
• Zero VOC, low odor, and environmentally friendly
